I *REALLY* don't understand the concern about performance. Do you need to do this within an inner nested loop? How many rows, average and maximum, are likely to be candidates for this? Unless you're including jQuery only for its easy selection capability for *this* purpose (i.e., not for any other uses elsewhere in your scripts), then it almost certainly is better, for long term maintainability, to use jQuery rather than native methods. I'd probably cache the reference to '#x', and use that:
$x = $('#x'); // later on ... $x.find('tr.zebra').removeClass('zebra') -- hj -- To view archived discussions from the original JSMentors Mailman list: http://www.mail-archive.com/jsmentors@jsmentors.com/ To search via a non-Google archive, visit here: http://www.mail-archive.com/jsmentors@googlegroups.com/ To unsubscribe from this group, send email to jsmentors+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com
